Seeing such a huge number of people, Smith couldn't help but worry a little about whether his thousand machine transformers could be shipped normally. After queuing for more than two hours, Smith finally made it to the Steam Game Store.

To his relief, after taking out his order voucher, Smith quickly bought his Thousand Machines and the game cartridge of Pokemon Gold and Silver.

In addition, there is a smaller box containing the Legend of Sword and Fairy game cartridge, in which in addition to the price of Thousand Machines is $299, Pokemon Gold and Silver is sold for $59.

Although this price is a little expensive, it is already cheaper than the N64's game cartridge, and Smith is still very content. After buying his own cartridge, Smith began to take a leisurely tour of the Steam Store.

Just like when I came to see it before, the decoration style of the Steam Game Store is all white, full of sci-fi style, very tall, and it is a decoration style that has never been seen before.

Of course, if Smith had been to China before and seen Daqian's four-wheel drive research institute, he would have found that the decoration style here was actually the same as that of the four-wheel drive research institute.

After admiring the decoration style of the Steam Game Store, it is more important to take a look at the products in the store.

For example, there is a super luxury gift package version of a thousand machine changes, packed in a huge iron box, priced at as high as $599 a box, according to the introduction on the box, in this super luxury gift package version, in addition to a thousand machine changes, a box of Sword and Fairy Legend In addition to a set of spare batteries and charging tools, two spare handles, a custom umbrella for a thousand machine handhelds, a fossil helmet redemption code for Pokemon Gold and Silver, an exclusive sports car redemption code for Grand Theft Auto, etc., as well as several peripheral goods, In terms of Daqian's publicity, there are many things that can only be purchased in the Super Deluxe Gift Pack, and cannot be bought outside anyway.

Smith thought that this super luxury gift bag worth $599 must have sold very badly, but he didn't expect that when Smith was queuing, he saw that this super luxury gift bag sold at least more than 25 boxes, which was really terrible, making Smith tremble when he looked at his wallet.

In fact, this gift pack is quite cost-effective, after all, the battery and charging tool are sold in the store for $99, and the price of the two spare handles is also $99, so the cost of adding up is $499.

Hey, in the end, Smith is rich, and if he is rich, Smith will definitely buy this super luxury gift pack version back!

Smith sighed, but thinking that he still had a few dozen dollars left in his pocket, and seeing the boxes of various game cartridges in the store, Smith wondered if he should bring another game cartridge back.

Originally, Smith's idea was to just buy a thousand machine changes and Pokemon and go home, after all, there was pocket money left to support Smith's expenses for up to three months, but when Smith saw a dazzling array of other games in the store.

What's more, there is also a TV in the store, which plays the actual demo screen of various games, especially one of the new games called "Plants vs. Zombies", which tickles Smith's heart.

Intuition tells Smith that this Plants vs. Zombies is going to be a lot of fun.

So, Smith struggled in place for a long time, and finally picked up the game cartridge of "Plants vs. Zombies", which also cost $59 a box, and resolutely walked towards the cash register.

As a result, around Christmas, Smith had to eat dirt.

The same scene basically happened everywhere in the world, all the newly opened steam game stores, in a week-long period, were crowded, countless players were rushing to buy thousands of game handhelds, if it weren't for Boss Jia stocking up 5 million thousands of machines in advance, I'm afraid it would really be blown up.

But the problem is that the number of 5 million units seems to be really not enough, and after half a month of global sales, there are already more than a dozen countries and regions in the inventory of thousands of machines.

Fortunately, Boss Jia is not Nintendo, especially after successively producing tens of millions of N64 and thousands of handhelds, Daqian has a lot of production experience, so in half a month, there are 3 million thousands of handhelds sent to all over the world, except for a very small number of areas where there is no stock, basically ensuring the sales of thousands of handhelds.

This makes Daqian unanimously praised by players, at least much better than that fucking Nintendo, a console can drag them out for months, it's really fucked up.

So a month after the sale, the sales of the thousand-machine game handheld exceeded 8 million units, officially surpassing the sales of the N64 and becoming the sales ace handheld in 1996, and as time goes by, this number will become more and more huge.

Now the most concerned question for people in the game industry is whether the current thousand-machine handheld can break the global sales record of 120 million units created by GB handhelds.

However, this record is a world record that took 8 years for GB handhelds, and now it is only a month, so in the eyes of outsiders, Daqian still has a lot of time to set a new record.

However, Boss Jia himself knows very well that time is running out, this era is not like before, there are 8 years of time, let a game handheld rule the entire game industry.

At most, in another five years, higher-performance handhelds will appear, even if other companies don't come out, Daqian itself will come up with new products to update, so it's not much time to leave a thousand machines to become handhelds.

But our Boss Jia has a way!

So on September 1, 1996, a month after the sale of the handheld, Daqian Games once again broke a big news in the game industry, that is, Daqian announced that it would launch a trade-in service, and you can use the old game console to buy the latest Qianji game handheld at a discount.

Daqian said that they have received a lot of letters from old players in the past month, saying that they are loyal players of "Pokemon Red and Green", but now that "Pokemon Gold and Silver" has been transferred to a new platform, they have no money to buy a new platform of thousands of machines, so I hope Daqian can consider their situation and solve their difficulties.

So Daqian really decided to help this part of the old players and launched this trade-in service.

To put it simply, as long as players turn in an old GB game console, then they can discount the price by $50, and at a price of 149, they can buy a new thousand-machine game console.

By the way, you must also bring a copy of the Pokemon Red & Green game cartridge to prove that you are a Pokemon veteran player.

As soon as this news was launched, the results were predictable, and overnight, almost more than three million old players came with their old GB consoles and asked for a trade-in.

No way, a latest, the world's highest-performance gaming handheld, can be bought for only $149, is there anything more wonderful in the world?

Of course, Daqian is not a loss, since you have bought a thousand games to change into a handheld, then it is important to buy a few handheld games every year in the future, who do you say made it?
